Caregivers & Loved Ones

Health Care Professionals

WHAT IS THEIR BIGGEST CHALLENGE?

A cancer diagnosis turns a person’s world upside down — emotionally, physically and financially.

The need for information becomes paramount - from the type of Cancer to the different treatments, to the implications on money, family, work, etc, a cancer diagnosis affects everything. Finding a trusted source of information that covers all the implications of a cancer diagnosis can be tough!

HOW DO YOU HELP THEM?

Aside from creating a thriving online community of people sharing their experiences and knowledge, CancerCare® is the leading national organization dedicated to providing free, professional support services, these include:

WHERE CAN WE FIND OUT MORE?

Music to Grieve to

Listening to sad music after losing a loved one, being diagnosed with a terminal illness, or finalizing a divorce might seem counterintuitive, but this somber sounding activity has been proven to help.

Nothing can prepare you for grief, nor is there a right or wrong way to deal with it, but sad music is an easily accessible and highly effective tool that can help you begin to heal.
